Is solar water heating more cost effective use of solar power over powering your house or solar thermal plants?
I was wondering is solar water heating a more cost efficient use of solar power over using large arrays to power your house or large solar thermal plants that are being contemplated all over the world.
What are potential salts used for storing solar thermal energy?
Are there Any patents on solar thermal energy?
I know solar thermal energy is efficient but i still need to know more can anyone please help me out with a few questions?What patents are put on Solar Thermal Energy?With one or two bars in the Solar energy screen how much space do you think it may heat up and how fast?Thank You
Costs of solar thermal energy?
Would you be really interested into buying cheap cheap solar thermal panels?
Looking for manufacturers of aDsorption chillers for solar thermal applications. 90 tons and up. Know any?
Why should we increase nuclear power use when geothermal and solar thermal are available?
Google announced today that it is investing $10.25 million in an energy technology called Enhanced Geothermal Systems EGS . According to an MIT report on EGS, only 2 % of the heat beneath the continental US between 3 and 10 kilometers depths we can reach with current technology is more than 2,500 the annual energy use of the United States.cleantechnica.com 2008 08 19 google investing over 10 million in geothermal energy Geothermal can provide baseload power just as well as nuclear, at much lower cost 5 cents per kWh as opposed to over 10 cents per kWh .www1.eere.energy.gov geothermal faqs.htmlclimateprogress.org 2008 06 13 nuclear power part 2 the price is not right greens.org s r 11 11 09.htmlSimilarly, many industry experts believe that solar thermal will likely deliver power for well under 10 cents per kWh fully installed in the next decade.climateprogress.org 2008 04 14 concentrated solar thermal power a core climate solution Geothermal and solar thermal plants can also be built much more quickly than new nuclear plants.So why should we dramatically increase our use of nuclear power as many have recently suggested when it's more expensive, has a greater environmental impact, takes longer to build, and is more dangerous than solar thermal and geothermal, which can also provide baseload power? What's so great about nuclear?
If its 100% green like a solar thermal power station why is no one willing to build one?
This technology has been tested and works and with the latest equipment updates will generate power 24 7 if the gov would back operations like this we could produce hydrogen as well.The hydrogen could be used to run cars, trucks. buses etc and ween this country of the over inflated oil prices the world is being charge. Just think in 15 to 20 years we could be selling hydrogen to other country's that wanted to stick with oil and had no infrastructure in place for new technology
Energy effeicient houses which include a solar water heater and a solar thermal would be located where?
what would the house be made of and why...
How does solar thermal work?
When cheap, stored and abundant solar thermal energy............?
no chance for dangerous nuclearists... storage.a thermal pile can be cheaply realized by using the passage of solid and liquid phases.1 m3 of NaCl very cheap can be melted by using about 300 kwh of thermal energy .................1 m3 of silicium needs more than 1000 kwh of thermal energy for melting ......BIG VALUES cheap and abundant solar energy.I can realize a big hole in the ground, panel it with aluminium foil so that I can reflect solar beams where I need them.I can close this big hole with glass...for protecting it against dust, rain etc... Less than 5 000 kmq of Arizona's surface can be able to produce the double of the actual Usa nuclear energy... SO...
How was solar thermal energy discovered?
How was it discovered? And what were its uses before electrical generation? Its for a powerpoint project. And I need a source, and no answers that are like, " I'm a teacher, so I know." Just a website would be appreciated thank you.
Can solar thermal panels be really cheap...?
I'm studying the idea to use evaporation of a particular cheap liquid in order to transport heat.I find it a cheap and intelligent solution that can decrease a lot their costs...
Why is Solar Thermal (DHW) not discussed more as a viable option to Co2 reduction?
I notice that the arguments are focused on cars. I do not disagree that this area has huge potential for reduction. I am however surprised that Domestic Hot Water is not included. The potential for reduction of Co2 is huge in this area as well.So as many question on YA are statements as well as questions this one might not be an exception. I would like to see answers toward why this is not discussed on a national level.Amy,Your answer shows you know your stuff about Solar thermal.Your answer is weak as far as the question however. many of the folks on the Co2 reduction bandwagon appear to be scientists and other interested environmentalist. It seems they should or do understand or think they understand Co2 and the sources for them. Yet they focus only on cars. Why?editAndrew your argument is good with the cradle to grave cost of energy used to produce the solar thermal system. But the question was not answered. My question was not economic nor if Co2 should be reduced. My question was why is Solar Thermal no included in the concept of Co2 reduction.
